I don't really dread the practice but I am more of a reader. 

Editing for me is the most difficult part of writing anything. I feel insecure when I am receiving feedback from peers or instructors, however, I know how important it is to have your text reviewed by another set of eyes. 

My experience in writing includes brief exploration on creative fandoms and fanfics, academic writing such as essays, research proposals, grant writing, etc. ]]> 2022-09-01 17:25:15 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279634487 Nav Sachdeva https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279814562 I am a really thoughtful writer which sometimes makes me stretch some off topic thing whenever I write. I think a lot before and during I write and I make a flow chart of what am I going to write in my mind. 
The most difficult part for me is to not repeat something in my writing which I have explained already. 
My experience in writing includes academics essays, a few blogs which I wrote on a website created by me and some informal letters to my friends and family on special occasions.]]> 2022-09-01 19:53:44 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279814562 Awatif Behbehani https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815191 What inspires you to write?
To be honest, most of my writings are usually academic or school related work. I do write down notes though.
What kind of writing have you done before?
I've written letters, emails, critical writing, and way more.
What are your languages? 
English and Arabic.
How do you use them in writing?
I use both english and Arabic when I'm texting my friends. And to write formal and informal writings.
What are your goals for writing and/or for this course? 
My goal is to enhance my writing skills by the end of this course.]]> 2022-09-01 19:54:29 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815191 Emma Liu Response https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815192 I don't consider myself a good writer, especially in academic writing. I only enjoy writing when I want to physically put my thoughts down, and those don't stress me out. When I have writing assignments and essays to do for classes, I often see them as tasks and the first thing I would check is always the word count requirement, then I get stressed out by them and only work towards reaching the goal. My goal for this course is to learn to not only focus on the word count. I believe I should work toward enjoying the process of writing. Once I managed to do that, I think I won't have to worry about word counts anymore.]]> 2022-09-01 19:54:29 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815192 Alzain Buresly https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815487 Throughout my years of learning how to write essays and papers, I realized the significance of rough drafts, and peer reviews. Whenever i reread what I wrote, i find grammer mistakes and fix them.
I speak two languages Arabic, and English, but I mostly write in English because I find it easier to express my thoughts that way. 
My goals for this course is to expand my learning of writing, and try writing different papers like journals, response papers, reflections and more.]]> 2022-09-01 19:54:50 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815487 Zhiyuan Liang zhiyuanliang1 https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815598 Most of my writing is just to finish the assignments and I expect it to be as accurate as possible. I've done writing paper about a scientists or a story of myself, and these are all connected to a specific topic. My first language is Chinese but I usually not include it in my writing as most assignments are required to be written in English. I do sometimes write diary in Chinese. My goal is to avoid spelling and grammar mistakes and at the same time build a nice structure. The difficult part for me is to proof read my own passage and usually I can't tell what's wrong with it.]]> 2022-09-01 19:54:58 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815598 junkaiyu https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815995
 In previous courses, I have wrote argumentative essays, analytical essays and rewrites, as well as news. My language contains both English and Chinese, but most of the writing in college nowadays consists of English. In this course my goals for writing is improve my writting skills,This will help me a lot in my future courses ]]> 2022-09-01 19:55:25 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279815995 Raghad almarzouq https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279816245 Usually all of my writing is academically related so I would say the thing that inspires me the most is the credits. This meme best represents me as a writer for many reasons, when i’m writing a short story or essay it becomes kind of difficult towards the end. I sometimes get either stuck or insecure when it comes to the end because as a reader I hate when the ending is bad, a cliffhanger for example. This makes me push myself harder though to try and come up with a great ending to my story or essay. ]]> 2022-09-01 19:55:44 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279816245 Damir Rasulov rasulov https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279816476 I kike writing overall, but I am not that good at academic writing. I have done some writing projects in my previous English 107 class. I can speak Uzbek, Russian, and English languages. I use Uzbek and English more frequently than Russian. My goal for this course is to improve my academic writing skills.  ]]> 2022-09-01 19:56:02 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279816476 https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279816572 There are some factors that persuades me to write. Most influential ones are writing projects with deadline for a really short time, XD. But when I have to write, I use my full potential to succeed in the writing process. One of the best things I found while working on writing assignments is spending more time on your first draft making it worth to submit as final draft. I know that it is impossible but, this method helped me to accomplish final draft. I will explore new effective writing methods as well as my previous writing skills, and use them effectively in writin!]]> 2022-09-01 19:56:09 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279816572 Chiu Yeh Chen https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279816639 When I was little, I used to read lots of novels, which inspires me to produce something like a novel or a short essay.

One of my most interesting pieces of writing is what I did for my PAH260 final essay. In that essay, I interview three people and discuss their identity as Asian Americans, and post the result and conclusion on a website. It was interesting because that is my first time interviewing someone on a topic I am really interested in.]]> 2022-09-01 19:56:14 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279816639 Dalia Bojbarah https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279818058 Most my writings are university essays, the thing that inspires me the most to write are the due dates assigned. My writings are all academic writings (argument essays). My goals are to improve the length of my essays . ]]> 2022-09-01 19:58:11 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279818058 Aws Al Jasmi https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279818202 When it comes to writing about fictional things I could have more practice. I believe I am more intrigued by non-fictional writing and writing about present events and sharing my opinions and following them with facts. I grew up in an environment where writing is very important and to excel in it is even more important.

One of the most interesting pieces I wrote was actually a memoir about one of the best events that I have ever attended. It highlights the emotions of that day in a descriptive manner and is a great representation my skills.

I am pretty confident with my writing skills since I have written in english for almost my entire life and I come from an American school with a strict program that only top of the top people qualify for. 

I believe I display my abilities best when I have freedom of what I am writing and I can write what I want to write about. Additionally, I believe I am very good at analyzing and depicting ideas within a text to make it easier to understand for my fellow readers. Hopefully I can display my abilities to the highest level and also gain new knowledge about writing since that is my goal by enrolling into this course. ]]> 2022-09-01 19:58:22 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279818202 What inspires me to write are many reasons and one of the most important reasons of them all are to improve and get better each time i write, it is very important to improve your writing skills not just in English class or in an academic point of view, but in the real world having a good foundation in writing and mastering the key elements and basics of writing will help you stand out in many opportunities later on in life. I have done many writings before such as argumentative essays, research papers and more. My languages are Arabic and English. English and Arabic are very different styles of writing that require different skills to be considered a successful writer in both. In my opinion Arabic is more challenging than English. My goals are basically to improve my ability and challenge myself with writing https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279819238 Fahad Bourisly

When it comes to editing my draft I am a little lazy because when I finish projects, I will try my best to make them perfect and untouchable, as my confidence is backed up by my competence. 
I do focus on two main factors in my academic writings: make them more interesting and academic]]> 2022-09-01 20:01:36 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279820728 Aziz Almonifi https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279822634 Vocabulary in my opinion is one of the most impactful aspects when it comes to writing. I believe that with good vocabulary, a lot of sentences have a more deeper meaning and and clearer intention. I always try my best to use synonyms if I want to write something and the words I choose are simple or very known. I believe it also gives the reader a sense of connection with what he or she is reading because it makes them curious of the meaning of words that they don't know; making them search them and getting them more engaged in the reading.]]> 2022-09-01 20:04:11 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279822634 Abdulaziz Al Hussaini https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279887220 what inspires me to write is to make readers engaged in the writing and build suspense until the main plot happens. I have done many kinds of writing, the most type would be argumentative writing as I many similar assignments in school. My languages is both Arabic and English, I mostly use English for academic writing and I use Arabic when I talk to my family and friends. My goal for this course is to imporve my writing skills. ]]> 2022-09-01 21:29:34 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279887220 Mohammad Abu-Khalifa https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279887804 In terms of writing, I have a difficult time when it comes to putting my ideas down on a piece of paper. In most cases, I tend to spend a lot of time just thinking about things without writing anything down because I feel as though my ideas aren't as good as they could be or I don't know how to phrase my ideas formally enough. I don't really have the inspiration to write, although I have written so many English papers and Lab reports, I still struggle to be inspired.

Achieving an A grade inspires me to write. I have done response writings, essays, articles etc. My goal is to improve my English writing skills for this course and to get an A as well for this course.

I have done a lot of writings due to me being in a private school for more than 14 years so that really plays a big role since everything is studied and explained in english except Arabic subjects which are maybe two only for each grade . I have done a lot of essays and short story writings . Well i speak two languages which are Arabic and english . I sometimes use Arabic sayings or phrases in english writings , you might say khaled how is that possible ? Well i translate them in my head to get the meaning i wanted to say from the first language . ]]> 2022-09-01 21:31:02 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279888101 Mohamad Alremeithi https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279888309 I like to write fast and sometimes I don’t even remember what I wrote but I keep writing and I don’t know how it’ll be like 500 words and I don’t even remember what it was about unless I read it again.

I write essays or a research for my classes but other than that I don’t really write much.

I mostly write all of my writing in English for now but before I moved to the US all my writing was in Arabic.

In this course I want to be able to write professional and more legitimate essays and better research for my other classes.]]> 2022-09-01 21:31:23 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279888309 Rahmatillokhon's Post https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279888456 The thing that motivates me to write is actually the grade. I am not really into writing, but unfortunately when I think of the grading system, I try to make my essay or writing better and better.

Mostly I used to write 250 words essay due to my ielts exam and sometimes I wrote some description essays as well.

I can say I have 3 languages (Russian, Uzbek and English). However I am not really fluent at writing in Russian.]]> 2022-09-01 21:31:38 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279888456 Sulaiman Alyaseen https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279888462 Every once in a while a new idea pops into my mind and I get inspired by it and try to write something useful or meaningful about it. the idea does not have to be something important, it just has to be "there". I have written short stories, a couple of papers, and essays. I actually know many languages but my mother tongue is Arabic, but I also know English, Turkish, Spanish, and French. My goal in this course is to improve my writing and my techniques, get better ideas, and learn everything my instructor has to teach.]]> 2022-09-01 21:31:39 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279888462 Mangqi Li https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890083 I think writing is a particular way of communication. Writing can help us communicate formally with people not close to us, avoiding the awkwardness of face-to-face communication and objectively showing what we want to express. I practice my writing because it helps me achieve success during my academic period. I need to write articles and essays every week, so I must learn how to write an excellent paper. I am constantly in touch with my English writing, although the level is still abysmal. I hope to learn from English 108 how to enrich my articles and learn more beautiful words.]]> 2022-09-01 21:34:24 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890083 Sunghoon Shin https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890195 My attitude to write is like hopeless because it is difficult to express the right way.
When I felt something about my life, and I start writing what I felt at the moment.
I wrote academic writings the most. 
My language is Korean.
To write better academic writing.]]> 2022-09-01 21:34:35 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890195 Montez Cruz https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890343 I choose this gif because when professors give me topics to write about sometimes I have no idea where to start. In addition, I enjoy writing when my life becomes chaotic. It is a way for me to express my feelings ,and it allows me to develop a plan to overcome obstacles that I am facing. In previous classes I have written informative and persuasive papers. In addition, I enjoy writing papers that are educational. This is beneficial in educating the readers on topics that they may be unfamiliar with. I enjoy journaling about my life in Spanish more than English because I am able to express my feelings better. My goals for this course is to improve my writing and work hard. In addition, I would like to earn an A in this course.]]> 2022-09-01 21:34:52 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890343 Mingqian Fu https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890402 Writing for me is pretty interesting. I enjoy telling people my idea and thinking through writing and that is what inspires me to write.

I wrote a lot of essaies, but most of them are assignments. 

I use Chinese as my writing language and when I try to write English essay, I will first think about how to write it in Chinese and then translate them into English.

I am trying to express my idea through my writing.]]> 2022-09-01 21:34:59 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890402 Kate Kim https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890414 I don't usually write a lot unless I have to write for any assignments and projects to submit. The only thing that I like to write in my own will is recording any memories that I cherish. Throughout my academic life, I've written research papers, reports, fictional writing, and application essays. The languages that I use while writing a paper would be Korean and English. But I prefer writing in Korean. I can think of various mimetics, onomatopoeias, and descriptive words that can help my writing become more lively. For this course, my goal for writing is to be able to write clear sentences and practice working on diverse writing formats.

I guess the thing which can inspire to write is my future. In the future, I have courses, work and so on. In many occasions, I need to use my writing skills to success or achieve some goals. I have written many types of article before, such as academic papers, weekly notes, informal writing such as tweets and so on. These articles were practiced in college. My native language is Chinese but for now I need to use English. I always use translator to write in English. In the contrast, I think it is a bad habit. In these course, I want to learn more about how to write a good academic article. I want to make my articles more rigorous and academic. And master better grammar and writing structure.]]> 2022-09-01 21:35:29 UTC https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890740 Qinhao Wen https://padlet.com/dilaraavci1/memes/wish/2279890846 I probably don't like writing very much. Most of the writing was done at the behest of the teacher.I'm not sure what kind of writing it was before, like SAT. Chinese and English. Choose the language to be used according to the teacher's instructions.
I hope I can learn how to quote articles proficiently in my own articles after this course, so as to increase the persuasiveness of my own papers

And that is what inspires me to write. 
So far, I have written IELTS essays, reports and many more types of writing.

Whenever I have some thoughts I always try to write them. If I am angry, I become calm after writing. If I think that I have a lot of stuff to do, I try to write them on paper or on my notes. After writing them I realize that no need to worry, as I exaggerated my own situation in my mind and if I prioritize all the tasks and do it by plan I could handle everything. In the future, I want to write books that are related to my professional sphere.
